I have an altar of luck

"gone."

Chen Yuan smiled, threw two meat buns to Wang Ping, turned and left.

Xiaofang blushed, watching Chen Yuan's back slowly disappear.

Wang Ping turned his head frequently, looked at Xiaofang for a while, and then at Chen Yuan for a while, opened his mouth to take a big bite of the meat bun, and muttered:

"Brother Yuan, Xiaofang is a nice girl, but you seem to be..."

Putting the peeled egg into his mouth, Chen Yuan said calmly:

"It's good, but not for me."

If it was the old Chen Yuan, then it would be great to marry such a woman who runs the family, but now, Chen Yuan is determined to pursue the road of martial arts, and he doesn't want to be bound by the love of his children.

In this way, it is not good for her or Chen Yuan.

As soon as she entered the rivers and lakes, Chen Yuan didn't want her to be implicated by her enemies in the future, so it's better to cut off her roots in advance.

Wang Ping heard the firmness in Chen Yuan's words, and glanced at Xiao Fang who was looking straight behind, sighed, and said in his heart:

"Clang is love..."

Chapter 39 Competition!

Chen Yuan glanced at Wang Ping strangely, and found that there was a look of regret on his face at this moment.

"What do you think?"

"No, nothing?" Wang Ping shook his head.

Chen Yuan's strength has always been stronger than him. Before they competed with each other, he was often tortured. If Chen Yuan knew that he was planning him in his heart, maybe he would find some excuse to fight against him.

Now that his injury has just recovered, Wang Ping doesn't want to lie in bed for a few more days.

For more than half a month, his brother has been suffocated.

"Ahem...Brother Yuan." Wang Ping moved slightly closer.

"how?"

"I heard from my father that there is a nice girl from the Yanyu Building in the south of the city. She used to be the oiran from the Fucheng side, but now she is getting older, and her business is deserted in our Ping'an County."

"Do you want tonight..." Wang Ping chuckled.

"Anyway, he has also been an oiran, do you have so much money?"

Wang Ping's family was not bad, but only good. His father was a merchant and had a few shops, but they were nothing in Ping'an County, otherwise there would be no need to send Wang Ping to the yamen.

The real wealthy families all go to the martial arts gym to practice martial arts since they were young, or they are sent to the Jianghu sect in Nanling Mansion.

"It doesn't cost much money to listen to a song at night. Because of the injury, the yamen gave me a lot of money. I beg you..."

A flash of heartache flashed in Wang Ping's eyes.

Chen Yuan shook his head and said:

"Too old, not interested."

And it's a firework girl. To be honest, Chen Yuan is really not very interested.

Although it has been more than a month since he washed his feet, what Chen Yuan wants is high quality, he can't be hungry, can't he?

He is no longer that eighteen or nineteen year old man with only brains.

Wang Ping hurriedly said:

"Brother Yuan, although that woman is old, she can't tell it at all, she doesn't have any wrinkles at all, it seems that the years have not left traces on her face at all."

Wang Ping's eyes showed yearning.

"The traces of time are not necessarily all on the face..." Chen Yuan said softly.

"Huh? Where is that?"

"In the place where the peach blossoms are in full bloom."

"???"

……

……

Ping'an County, county government.

Today's county government office was unusually peaceful, with all the servants performing their duties, without the usual hustle and bustle. After Chen Yuan and Wang Ping arrived, someone looked up at them, then lowered their heads, pretending to be holding a file in their hands.

Chen Yuan and Wang Ping looked at each other, without breaking the strange calm, they picked up the two volumes and stood in an inconspicuous place.

"Brother Yuan, this..."

Wang Ping gestured with his eyes.

"It's probably for the position of arresting the head, don't talk nonsense." Chen Yuan whispered.

The position of Yifang Headhunter has completely entered the level of an 'official'. It is completely different from ordinary government servants. The status and power are not the same. Naturally, there are many people who covet it.

Like Huang Xing, it is enough to support a big family.

The big and small forces in Ping'an County also treat the most powerful head arrester in the county government with courtesy.

For ordinary yamen servants like them, this opportunity is like a carp jumping over the dragon's gate.

Although the position of head catcher is generally reserved for bone refiners, it is not without precedent that blood refiners hold the position. Otherwise, Chen Yuan would not have implicitly hinted at Wang Ping's words before.

If he can be a headhunter, Chen Yuan can easily obtain resources or other things in the future.

These old government servants who have accumulated over the years also have the same thoughts.

Apart from Tie Xuan and Huang Xing, there are only two or three bone refiners in the Ping'an County Yamen, and they all perform their duties. It's not like they have no chance.

Whether it can be achieved or not is always a matter of contention.

The two were talking quietly, and a middle-aged man with a smile on his face stepped forward:

"Wang Ping, have you recovered from your injury?"

"Hurry up, Detective Wu, there is nothing serious."

Wang Ping said hastily.

"Don't be so pretentious. When you entered the county government, I helped you." Wu Yushan smiled, his eyes flashed.

"Hehe, I would like to thank Brother Ang, so how about I host a special banquet for Brother Ang another day?"

Wang Ping thought in his heart, but on the surface he was somewhat respectful.

At the beginning, the county government entrusted him to enter, but they gave him a lot of money. For more than a year, I haven't seen him take care of him, and the little affection has long since disappeared.

"How can I let you play host? In this way, when my old Wu takes the position of head catcher, I will entertain you and Chen Yuan," Wu Yushan squinted his eyes and nodded at Chen Yuan.

"Then congratulations to Brother Wu first."

Wu Yushan waved his hands and said:

"I haven't written my horoscope yet. I'm here, brother, and I hope you two can support me. Don't worry, when I sit on the headhunter, I won't be able to do without your benefits."

"Chen Yuan, what do you think?"

Having seen Chen Yuan's strength before, Wu Yushan and the other old government servants began to pay more attention to him. If he can support him, he can save a lot of things. As for Wang Ping, who is at the level of leather refining, it is just an addition. .

This time, he was not the only one eyeing the position of head catcher, and even a few other masters, so it was natural to recruit some masters.

Chen Yuan and Wu Yushan looked at each other:

"It would be good if Brother Ang could take that seat."

"Okay, with your words, I feel relieved, brother. To be honest, I am very optimistic about you. After I go down, it's okay for you to take over."

Wu Yushan promised in a low voice.

Chen Yuan looked at him with a smile on his lips, and whispered:

"It depends on what the county lieutenant has to say."

Wu Yushan frowned and looked at Chen Yuan. Just when he was about to say something more, Li Mingqi, the county lieutenant, walked into the arresting room with a stiff face.

All the yamen servants stood up one after another, cupped their hands and said:

"I've seen adults."

"I've seen adults."

Li Mingqi glanced at the nearly thirty yamen servants present with a sullen face, and said loudly:

"I know that all of you here, including the yamen servants in the other rooms, want to be promoted to headhunter, but the position of headhunter has always been held only by bone refiners who have made great contributions."

"You guys are still far away..."

"Originally, the Magistrate of County Wu meant to transfer a master from Fucheng to serve as the head catcher in order to deal with the pressure from the Wusheng Sect thieves, but the official refused, and the head catcher must be selected from Ping'an County ,

This officer is willing to give you a chance, even if you are not strong enough, there is always hope to step into bone refining in the future. "

All the yamen servants below looked at each other, but no one spoke.

"Head hunters have always been obedient to the public, and those who have no merit are not allowed to serve as head hunters. The position of head hunter is determined by seniority and strength, but this time, I decided to use a different method for selection. Tomorrow, I will be in the east of the city. The school grounds sit in town..."

Chapter 40 I want to try it too

"The winner is determined by strength. Whoever can subdue all the competitors will be able to exercise the right to arrest the head. As for the official status, after he is promoted to bone refining, the official will personally report to the superior."

Li Mingqi's eyes swept over everyone one by one.

The position of head-hunter in a county is a ninth-rank official, and the county magistrate cannot determine it, so the document must be delegated from the prefecture.

The servants below were whispering and chatting endlessly.

"Brother Yuan, this time is a good opportunity. It's a pity, you and I are only at the level of skin refining now, otherwise, it's okay to go up and compete."

Wang Ping suddenly had a flash of remorse for not practicing well.

Spend money and time in the hook.

Having the power to catch heads means having a lot of cultivation resources, and stepping into the level of bone refining is not a difficult thing.

For all the blood-refining officials, this is great news.

From skin refining to blood refining, as long as you practice diligently, you can start refining blood in a few years, but stepping into bone refining is different, not only talent is required, but also cultivation resources.

The most important thing is the cultivation resources. As long as the resources are sufficient, there are very few people who can't pass this threshold.

Chen Yuan glanced at Wang Ping and said in a low voice:

"Silence."

Wang Ping was taken aback for a moment, then shut his mouth brightly, listening to the excited words of the surrounding yamen servants who were eager to try.

Li Mingqi raised his palm, and there was a solemn silence:

"Although blood refining fighters can compete for this seat, I still advise you to do what you can. Swords have no eyes. If there is an accident during the competition, you can blame others."

"If you don't have any strength, it's best to continue to practice honestly. If you make great contributions, I will be promoted. Now, whoever wants to fight, stand in front of me."

Li Mingqi stood with his hands behind his back, staring at the servants with a calm expression.

Wu Yushan took a deep breath and walked out slowly:

"My lord, I want to fight for the humble position."

As far as his strength is concerned, he also belongs to the top experts in the lower row of Huang Xing. Naturally, he cannot let go of this good opportunity. Although he intended to win over Chen Yuan, Wang Ping and some yamen servants before, he actually didn't have much confidence in his heart.

After all, the position of headhunting is usually only held by a master bone refiner, and many meritorious deeds are required.

And although he has refined blood three times, there is still a big gap from bone refining.

Now Li Mingqi proposed to judge victory or defeat based on strength, which is exactly what he wants. He is confident that as long as there are no bone refiners, he has a great chance of winning in the same realm.

"Is there any more?" Li Mingqi looked calmly.

Among the group of yamen servants, two old yamen servants stepped forward together, bowed and said:

"grown ups."

Chen Yuan looked at the three people who stood up, all of them were not common people, they belonged to the masters of blood refinement level, but except for Wu Yushan before, Chen Yuan didn't pay attention to them.
